So, I built my own!

I know that it will be a while before the DC6 joins my collection of PMDG airplanes.

So, I decided to build my own.

1/72 scale :-)

You cannot look at it with too critical an eye, because I am not a master builder and I had to take some "artistic license" here and there.

However, doing research for photos, making and printing the decals and building the kit, was an awful lot of fun.

Now to continue waiting for the real thing.

Roberto-

 

Hey now- THAT there is just absolutely cool as hell!

 

Very nicely done, Roberto.  I shared the image with the team- I'm sure they will be flattered.

 

Really really nice work, sir.

Hi Rich:

Retirement has allowed me to return to my childhood and youth.

 

I grew up in Bolivia, where DC-6's were the "staple" of the local airline Lloyd Aereo Boliviano, until well into the 60's and 70's when the 727's arrived.

 

Yes, a spot is saved for her as soon as the FSX version is released and the first take off will be in La Paz (SLLP) at 13,300 ASL :-) :-)

 

Just like the "old days"

 

Once again, thank you for your prompt help, it is much appreciated.

 

Many regards,

Roberto

If so, seeing how great that DC-6 looks...you shouda' painted the 767!

Well isn't this a small world. I also spent a fair chunk of my life in Bolivia.

 

Salud Roberto!
